    I'm clearing out the shop, and I've got what I believe are 1987 TR "test pipes". They weren't on the car at the time of purchase, and by now I don't remember if they actually would fit in there. I'll keep posting whatever I come across during the clean up. Shoot me a PM if you want them.

    Are the cats hollow, or still intact internally?

    I dont think they are test pipes but being European I may well be wrong.
    I thought that test pipes replaced the cat converters :)

    those are no testpipes. it looks like an aftermarket cat conversion even the cats look original???
    also the 2 double endpipes left and right are not original, looks like selfmade?

    In the US however you can't sell used cats (I heard), thus these are sold as test pipes, and therefore shouldn't be construed as functioning cats, or anything else that might get me in trouble.
    I'm not sure if they're aftermarket or custom, all I know is that they came with the TR I bought a while back. Hope this helps, but I doubt it.

    Those are "muffler delete" exhaust tips, that bolt directly up to the catalytic convertors. Not sure how they would sound, but I really like the idea - pretty cool!
